Don't think the black passivate is any good for alloy only steel (like carb clips, fork top yoke D spacers etc). For M/Cyl , switch bodies i think you need anodizing or PJ1 Satin Black baked on in an oven then given a quick buff with Solvol.

hmm, is that PJ1 paint resistant against brake fluid?
Currently my friend is struggling with some (expensive) BF-resistive 2-K paint for the M/C on his z750... quite a hustle it seems... (as he did not listen to me to wait for my soda blaster to arrive first... would have provided the clean, nice surface required for an easy application with durable result...)

Not saying it's BF resistant totally but it's what a top CB750 restorer uses and who wrote the definitive book on the CB750. If you are careful anyway, you can avoid getting BF on the M/Cyl. You can remove the old anodizing using caustic soda on switches.
